Happy 18 Months!

I know, it's been forever & I do have pictures for months 15, 16 & 17 (wow... It has been a while) BUT here's something to hold you over.

 

We got her pictures taken at JC Penny today - she really is getting big :)

Just some pics

While posting Katie's 14 mo pics, I found some that I wanted to share...

Out for a picnic with daddy

 Wearing Aunt Kammie's scarf

 Playing in the 3o acre woods

 Dressed up for Mother's Day

 Looking cute in me-moms backyard

 Practicing her modeling poses

 Walking with Daddy

 Helping Mommy sweep (her favorite chore!)

 Looking at wrapping paper with Aunt Maggie

 Exploring the new house in her wagon.

 Pool time fun!

 All dressed up for Memorial Day

 Water in buckets

 Ready for Africa - lol.

Happy 14 months!

So now it seems that this is the only time I post.  Sorry about that, but at least it's about once a month, right??

Katie has been walking up a storm!  She's also really starting to be able to communicate & very obviously understands what you are saying.  We think she's super smart, but of course, we're biased :-)

And so here's pictures from this month.

And lest you think she's always smiley...

Happy 13 Months!

OK, so I know most people stop taking monthly pics at 1 year, but I don't ever think to take pictures otherwise, so I decided to keep going.

But first, a few other pictures from recently...

A family trip to the zoo was a lot of fun

And a picnic in the park with Aunt Kas

Now for the 13 month pics.  Her new favorite mode of trasportation is via wagon.

 Daddy has gotten her hooked on clover flowers, they're her favorite!

 How does this handle work?

 And we're walking!

Katie's 1st Birthday Party

We had a small birthday party for Katie & thought we would share the pictures...

The decor was nice :-)

Here's the birthday girl!  She wasn't really walking, but she took a few steps for everyone to see.

Katie opening presents

Happy1 Year!!! (and Happy Easter)

So here it is... One year.  It's hard to believe that it's been a year that we've had our little girl, but it's also hard to remember life without her.  This weekend, we took our monthly pictures with her (Thanks to Danette, our photographer), we celebrated her birthday and we celebrated her 2nd Easter (her first 2nd holiday lol)

Here's some pictures from the weekend...

Looks like someone is going to be a real ham :-)

This one has already become a fan favorite

There's the phanatic once again...

Happy 11 Months!

Well, this is it, the last month we can count without a year in the front! This month we went to the park to take pictures, and it was a bit hard & I decided to take what I could get and save the big effort for 1 year! We still got a few good ones...

Katie was very interested in everything else going on in the park.

I think she's pretending to be a dancer!
